== Introduction ==
A [[multiblock]] Coke Oven allows the creation of better fuel with a byproduct of Creosote Oil without the usage of power. Coke Ovens will not [[wallshare]] and cannot be built adjacent to each other. This is one of the first multiblock structures a player is likely to build, along with the [[Water Tank]] in [[Stone Age]].

==Creosote==
===Creosote===
Creosote is a byproduct of the [[Coke Oven]]. It can be loaded into metal buckets or Seared Tanks through the GUI or right-clicking on the Coke Oven itself. Creosote can be used to craft torches or burned in Furnaces, Iron Furnaces, [[Boiler Firebox]]es or [[Semi-Fluid Generator]]s for early game Steam power. In [[LV]] it's also used as a lubricant. If you truly have an excess of creosote, Coke Ovens can be voided by breaking the bottom center block and then rebuilding the multi-block structure. Automated voiding is gated to LV.

For all railcraft multiblocks, the fluid is saved on the center of the bottom layer of the multiblock (i.e. the coke oven bricks block on the middle of the bottom 3*3 layer). Breaking it or re-centering the broken multiblock using another brick as the center will '''void''' all the fluid contained within. If you find yourself with a surplus of Creosote Oil and no way to stockpile it, breaking the bottom center block to void the excess is an option.

The image below shows a Basic automatic Coke Oven that will automatically pull items from the left storage that can be cooked in the coke oven and take out the resulting items and put them in the right storage. It also features a creosote oil drainer which must be activated by hand unless a Redstone clock is attached to the tinker's faucet.
